Bayan wani lokaci aka faɗa wa Yusuf, “Mahaifinka yana ciwo.” Sai ya ɗauki’ya’yansa maza biyu, Manasse da Efraim suka tafi tare da shi.

Sa’ad da aka faɗa wa Yaƙub, “Ɗanka Yusuf ya zo gare ka,” sai Isra’ila ya ƙoƙarta ya tashi ya zauna a kan gado.

“To, yanzu,’ya’ya mazanka biyu da aka haifa maka a Masar kafin in zo a nan za su zama nawa; Efraim da Manasse za su zama nawa, kamar yadda Ruben da Simeyon suke nawa.

8 Israaʼel yeroo ilmaan Yoosef argetti, “Isaan kunneen eenyu?” jedhee gaafate.
Sa’ad da Isra’ila ya ga’ya’yan Yusuf maza, sai ya yi tambaya, “Su wane ne waɗannan?”
9 Yoosef immoo abbaa isaatiin, “Isaan kunneen ilmaan biyya kanatti Waaqni naaf kennee dha” jedhe. Kana irratti Israaʼel, “Akka ani isaan eebbisuuf natti fidi” jedhe.
Yusuf ya ce wa mahaifinsa, “Su ne’ya’yan da Allah ya ba ni a nan.” Sa’an nan Isra’ila ya ce, “Kawo mini su saboda in albarkace su.”
10 Yeroo kanatti Israaʼel dulloomee iji isaa dadhabee ture; innis waa hubachuu hin dandaʼu ture. Kanaafuu Yoosef ilmaan isaa Israaʼelitti dhiʼeesse; Israaʼelis isaan dhungate; isaan hammates.
Yanzu fa idanun Isra’ila sun fara rasa ƙarfi saboda tsufa, har ba ya iya gani sosai. Saboda haka Yusuf ya kawo’ya’yansa maza kusa da shi, sai mahaifinsa ya sumbace su ya rungume su.
11 Israaʼelis Yoosefiin, “Ani fuuluma kee iyyuu nan arga jedhee hin yaadne; Waaqni garuu akka ani ijoollee kee iyyuu argu naa eeyyame” jedhe.
Isra’ila ya ce wa Yusuf, “Ban yi tsammani zan ga fuskarka kuma ba, yanzu kuwa Allah ya bar ni in ga’ya’yanka su ma.”
12 Yoosefis jilba Israaʼel irraa achi isaan butee fuula isaatiin lafatti gad gombifame.
Sa’an nan Yusuf ya ɗauke su daga gwiwoyin Isra’ila ya rusuna da fuskarsa har ƙasa.
13 Innis ergasii lamaan isaanii iyyuu fuudhee Efreemin karaa mirga isaatiin gara harka Israaʼel isa bitaatti, Minaasee immoo bitaa isaatiin gara harka Israaʼel isa mirgaatti fidee isatti dhiʼeesse.
Yusuf ya ɗauke su biyu, Efraim a damansa zuwa hagun Isra’ila, Manasse kuma a hagunsa zuwa hannun daman Isra’ila, ya kuma kawo su kusa da shi.
14 Israaʼel garuu utuma Efreem quxisuu taʼee jiruu harka isaa mirgaa mataa Efreem irra kaaʼe; Minaaseen immoo utuma hangafa taʼee jiruu Israaʼel harka isaa wal qaxxaamursee harka isaa bitaa mataa Minaasee irra kaaʼe.
Amma Isra’ila ya miƙa hannun damansa ya sa shi a kan Efraim, ko da yake shi ne ƙaramin, ta wurin harɗewa hannuwansa, ya sa hannun hagunsa a kan Manasse, ko da yake Manasse ne ɗan farinsa.
15 Innis akkana jedhee Yoosefin eebbise; “Waaqni inni abbootiin koo Abrahaamii fi Yisihaaq fuula isaa dura jiraatan, Waaqni inni bara jireenya koo guutuu hamma harʼaatti tiksee koo ture sun,
Sa’an nan ya albarkaci Yusuf ya ce, “Bari Allah a gaban wanda kakannina Ibrahim da Ishaku suka yi tafiya, Allahn da ya zama makiyayina dukan raina zuwa wannan rana,

Mala’ikan da ya cece ni daga dukan cuta bari yă albarkaci samarin nan. Bari a kira su da sunana da sunayen kakannina Ibrahim da Ishaku bari kuma su ƙaru ƙwarai a bisa duniya.”
17 Yoosef yommuu akka abbaan isaa harka isaa mirgaa mataa Efreem irra kaaʼe argetti ni gadde; kanaafuu inni harka abbaa isaa mataa Efreem irraa fuudhee mataa Minaasee irra kaaʼuuf jedhee kaase.
Sa’ad da Yusuf ya ga mahaifinsa yana sa hannun damansa a kan Efraim bai ji daɗi ba; saboda haka ya ɗauke hannun mahaifinsa ya cire shi daga kan Efraim zuwa kan Manasse.
18 Yoosef abbaa isaatiin, “Yaa abbaa ko, akkas miti; inni kun hangafa; harka kee mirgaa mataa isaa irra kaaʼi” jedhe.
Yusuf ya ce masa, “A’a, mahaifina, wannan shi ne ɗan farin; ka sa hannunka na dama a kansa.”
19 Abbaan isaa garuu didee akkana jedheen; “Ani nan beeka; yaa ilma koo nan beeka. Innis saba taʼa; saba guddaa isaa taʼa. Taʼus obboleessi isaa inni quxisuun isa caalaa guddaa taʼa; sanyiin isaas tuuta saba baayʼee ni taʼa.”
Amma mahaifinsa ya ƙi ya ce, “Na sani, ɗana, na sani. Shi ma zai zama mutane, zai kuma zama mai girma. Duk da haka ɗan’uwansa zai zama mai girma fiye da shi, kuma zuriyarsa za tă zama ƙungiyar al’ummai.”
20 Innis gaafa sana akkana jedhee isaan eebbise; “Israaʼel maqaa keetiin eebba kana kenna; ‘Waaqni akka Efreemii fi akka Minaasee isin haa taasisu.’” Yoosefis akkasiin Minaasee dura Efreemin dabarse.
Ya albarkace su a wannan rana ya ce, “A cikin sunanku Isra’ila zai sa wannan albarka ‘Bari Allah yă sa ku zama kamar Efraim da Manasse.’” Saboda haka ya sa Efraim gaban Manasse.
21 Ergasii Israaʼel Yoosefiin akkana jedhe; “Kunoo ani duʼuu gaʼeera; Waaqni garuu isin wajjin taʼee biyya abbaa keessaniitti isin deebisa.
Sa’an nan Isra’ila ya ce wa Yusuf, “Ina gab da mutuwa, amma Allah zai kasance tare da ku

Kuma gare ka, a matsayi wanda yake kan’yan’uwanka, na ba da gonar da na karɓe daga Amoriyawa da takobi da kuma bakana.”
